About our program
Our Confirmation Program is under way for the 2011-12 school year, and it is our goal to help assist parents as they fulfill the promises they made at their child’s baptism which included:
- to faithfully bring them to the services of God’s house
- teach them the Lord’s Prayer, the Creed and the Ten Commandments
- place in their hands the Holy Scriptures
- provide for their instruction in the Christian faith…
- …that living in the covenant of their Baptism and in communion with the Church, they may lead godly lives until the day of Jesus Christ.
Upon completion of the three-year program, individuals will profess their faith in Christ Jesus and will make the following promises:
- to live among God’s faithful people
- to hear His Word and share in His supper
- to proclaim the good news of God in Christ through word and deed
- to serve all people, following the example of our Lord Jesus
- to strive for justice and peace on earth.
In order to prepare our youth for their confirmation, we ask the following of them during their sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade years:
Learning:
- each student attends a six-session grade-level course
- each student attends Sunday School a minimum of one time per month
- each student completes a given number of sermon notes each year
Service:
- each student serves as acolyte/crucifer on a rotating basis
- each student performs nine points of service per year. Opportunities for service are varied and held at various times.
Fellowship:
- each student participates in CLUB 678 activities throughout the year
